How stream from win10 with dolphin via SteamLink to Nvidia shield

[Dcorn123]

Hi there.

I want to stream dolphin from my win 10 PC to my nvidia shield in my living room via nvidia shield. I just dont get it if I can or not.

In my PC runs perfectly. If I want to play the game from PC:
Install dolphin in pc
Connect nvidia shield controller with cable to my PC
map buttons in dolphin
Run dolphin and game
Play

If I want to stream the game so I can play from nvidia shield via steam link:

IN PC
Install dolphin in pc
Connect nvidia shield controller with cable to my PC
map buttons
Install steam
create link of dolphin as a non steam game

IN NVIDIA SHIELD
Install steam link from play store
Run steam and run Dolphin
Select game and play

Nvidia shield doesnt respond within the game but yes from Steam Link.

What I am doing wrong?

Regards and thank you in advance,

This step seems odd to me. I connect the shield controller to my shield...

I have Dolphin setup to use the xinput device in the device dropdown.

I also don't use a link from dolphin in steam. Instead, I use a frontend (pegasus) but I believe I've heard a link should be fine.

So you're able to see the game but not interact with it?

Thanks for answering iwubcode.

I also connect the shield controller to my shield but first I connect it to the PC to map the buttons. After I connect it again to the shield. I use cable on pc because bluetooth not working fine.

Mine comes out as Dinput not Xinput.

I will check it.

Yes. Steam link within nividia works fine while pressing buttons. Dolphin cant interact but runs perfectly.

Do you have another device to connect to your computer that is xinput?

I think steam link treats any controller connected to it as an xinput device, so the input Dolphin should receive is xinput.

I will try and remember to confirm this weekend.
